Timely Warnings

The University and the City of San Marcos are experiencing a large number of vehicle burglaries. The burglaries are occurring in large parking lots with the primary focus being in apartment complex parking. They are generally occurring between midnight and 5 am. The most recent vehicle burglaries on university property  have occurred in the Bobcat Village ( Mills Street )parking lot.

 
The burglars appear to be targeting vehicles that have valuable items and device power cords visible. They break the window and remove these items in a very short period of time. Reduce the chance of this happening to you by taking these items with you. Conceal any valuable items that you must leave behind. Use your trunk if necessary.  Call the police department if you see anyone suspicious or have any information concerning these crimes.
